JUST FOR INFO AND NOT FOR SALE BY ME

On ebay at the moment, but too far for me to collect from Wetherby - Which is up North somewhere.

Item number:330310426076 FL2 Rear tailgate spoiler.

Looks like it's painted G4 Orange? Finishes tomorrow evening - Current bid at £10.49 FL2 TD4 XS Santorini

its actually red with a chip in it and no brackets to hold it on

Depending on the price i might be bidding on it, i have been watching for about a week Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Whoops, sorry to bring it to others attention

I got the impression that not many on here looked on ebay, as sellers often take the p with the prices due to the limited amount of secondhand FL2 gear available.

On this item, does the chip really need a bracket to hold it in place, or have I misunderstood and this particular chip is not actually one of a potato based variety? FL2 TD4 XS Santorini

I'll bid it up to annoy pinky  At work

the spoiler has a chip in it, and also the spoilers require metal brackets to clamp them on to the cars body work, otherwise they are held on just by double sided 3M tape

And you can't buy the brackets either

I actually look on eBay all the time,

So far i have bought 2 sets of black sides protection tubes for £100 each set, some replacement lower door trims for 99p to swap them to the car when it comes time to sell to get rid of the doors scuffs from hitting my garden wall Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Sorry, I was deliberately mis-interpreting your post for comic effect (Unsucessfully obviously)

I also find ebay is good for bits and pieces, if you can find them without too many others bidding. Managed to pick up a GS rim as a replacement for the steel spare a while ago. Still not put a tyre on it yet  FL2 TD4 XS Santorini

no need to apologise, i was cooking in the kitchen at the time i read your post, I was in the process of stirring the turkey and leaks every 10 minutes so thought i might aswell read some post in the intervals

Read yours just as i need to add the creme fresh and stock, and now i see the comic humour within your post  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

yep, I found a spoiler, it was painted my colour, bought it, and then asked if it had the bracket, got a refund then found out what the brackets looked like, but he went against his word and sold it straight away

This one will require a respray to stornaway grey, and the chip repair, as normally the price shoots up near the end, then the cost of it been sanded, resprayed will shoot the price up more than the cost of just having a new Primed one painted (£45) from my local chap

We'll see  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

It would be better to spray your car to match the spoiler..........after first spraying the spoiler black  At work

i would have never guessed that  Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

The weird thing is, when I fitted mine, one of the clamps does not even touch the inside of the tailgate, so I used a small 2/3mm plastic packing block? But the original 3M tape is so strong you don't really need the clamps.

A friend of mine who had a spoiler put on his, sold the car (Which was black CG ) and bought an HSE in Black and tried to remove the spoiler from his car, could we get if off, nope! It was stuck like a really sticky thing!

So he had to leave it on as either the car or the spoiler would get damaged. Freelander 2 HSE Lux 2013MY - Barolo Black with Ivory Leather. Alpine DVD - Privacy -Evoque 20" Dynamic Wheels and more to come.........

did bid on it, sold for £87, okay if you've a red car already, but taking into account respray and repair, it wasn't worth it

There is a black spoiler, side skirts and HST grill on eBay now too Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Seems too be 2 different fixing methods ie clamp styles running at the moment though the blow moulding surfaces seem identical except in the area of the fixings. Are the after market items different to OE fit.
Given that I see no usefull reason for this appendage, it is even to high up for resting a coffee cup on. still pining for my 3dr, no removeable hardtop, no drop glass tailgate, no roof rack, no pockets everywhere to stow all that man kit

Upnaway, you must be really short ? Out on the road today, I saw a Dead Head sticker on a Cadillac.............
